Set against the backdrop of the English Civil War, this seminal work of political philosophy articulates Hobbes' vision of a strong central government led by an absolute sovereign to ensure societal order. He argues that the chaos of his time necessitated such authority, prioritizing peace over individual freedoms. The book is structured into four parts, exploring human nature, the commonwealth, and the interplay between religion and governance. Its profound impact on modern political theory cements its status as a foundational text in the field.
